We Will Overcome

My people have been for 400 plus years trying to be apart of this country... Even when it is plain to see we were not wanted here we still try to fit in...  This country does not want us here just face it... We must begin to finish the work of men like Marcus Garvey... The only way the world will respect us again is if we build our own...

We tried building here before in places like Tulsa Oklahoma and for our efforts to be self sufficient this country repaid us by burning us out... Even though this history is well documented there are still talking heads that suggest that some how my people are lazy and we don't try hard... When a so called black person is seen above a certain social status in this country the system works extra hard to make sure the man/woman (nigger) doesn't get to uppity...

Now one has to ask the question: What is it that we are supposed do in this nation??? They don't want us here yet they need us here to keep their blood sucking economy going... Really what are we to do, when we live in a nation that says pull yourself up by your bootstraps but when you do they punch you in the face... 99% of my people work hard to get the little scraps they have only to be met with scorn and disrespect...

It took me some time but now I see that our only way out is through faith in God and hard work... We must devise a plan to separate ourselves from the infrastructure of corporate slavery... This nation was founded on slavery and it has never changed... We must find ways to get out of the slave relationships we have with this nation... No longer can it be acceptable for us to languish in these nefarious understandings... Where we are the butt of every joke...    

The civil war wasn't fought to free any of us from slavery; it was to redefine slavery...  They now have slaves of every creed and color... In fact they have people claiming over top of one another to be the next slave in line... They having willing participants in their own destruction... We can no longer afford the luxury of self hate...  To my people I say we have made them rich enough they have more than 400 year of free labor from us...  I say we shouldn't give them a moment more...

We have over 300 billion in buying power and countless amounts of skill and talent in every field of life... Let us redirect those resources for the good of our people...  Take your dollars and spend as many as you can in your own businesses... We don't have to start big we can gradually progress until we own the factor farms and lands needed to sustain our own...

You may only be able to start by selling clothing but don't stop there; keep selling until you have enough to start designing... Keep it going until you have enough for factories... Then get land to harvest the resources needed for every product you sell... Ultimately you will be in the position to change your community and the way your people are viewed...

This is not about them... This is about our survival as a people... If we don't do something soon there won't a community to call home for our kind... I want to believe we can change and I still have the greatest hope that God is not done with us yet... I may not see these things I speak of in my lifetime but I know for sure that they will come to pass... My people will be restored to their former glory and world will be brought back to balance...
